Cave exploration is the perfect way to experience Guizhou

Guizhou, a land blessed by nature, boasts not only magnificent landscapes but also countless mysterious karst caves. These natural "air-conditioned rooms" gifted by nature maintain a cool temperature of around 15°C (59°F) in summer, making them ideal destinations to escape the heat. Zhijin Cave 📍Guanzhai Miao Ethnic Township, Zhijin County, Bijie City 👉Guizhou's first UNESCO Global Geopark and a 5A-level national scenic area, crowned as "China's Most Beautiful Tourist Cave" and ranked first among "China's Top Ten Extraordinary Caves". Just as Huangshan leaves no desire to see other mountains, Zhijin Cave makes all other caves pale in comparison! Dragon Palace 📍Longgong Town, Xixiu District, Anshun City 👉This 5A-level national scenic area features China's longest and most beautiful water-eroded caves (First and Second Dragon Palaces), the largest cave Buddhist shrine (Guanyin Cave), and the largest karst waterfall inside a cave (Dragon Gate Waterfall). It's also recognized for having the world's lowest natural radiation levels, the largest cluster of water-dry karst caves, and the world's largest plant-formed Chinese character "Dragon🐲" field. Shuanghe Cave 📍Shuanghe Village, Wenquan Town, Suiyang County, Zunyi City 👉A national geopark and 4A-level scenic area. As of September 2023, Shuanghe Cave's explored length reaches 409.9 km (255 miles), ranking it as Asia's longest and the world's third longest cave. It's the world's largest dolomite and celestite cave system, comprising Shuanghe Valley Scenic Area, Underground Fissure Scenic Area, and Shuanghe Inn Resort. Dafang Nine-Cave Heaven 📍Wuyan Village, Maochang Town, Dafang County, Bijie City 👉A national scenic spot and 4A-level attraction, renowned as "China's Karst Encyclopedia" and "Karst Geological Museum". Visitors can boat through nine interconnected cave systems. Ziyun Getu River 📍Geshuitang Town, Ziyun Miao and Buyi Autonomous County, Anshun City 👉This national scenic area (4A-level) features spectacular cave clusters including the magnificent Getu Grand Cave, Miao Hall, and Xiangshui Cave. It preserves the world's most intact ancient river course relics - Chuanshang Cave, Blind Valley, and mysterious primeval forests. The area also includes picturesque Jiashan scenery, the idyllic Dahe Miao Village, perilous Xiaochuandong Canyon, the stunning Tianxing Cave, and the last cave-dwelling tribe - Zhongdong Miao Village. Guizhou's caves are not just summer retreats but also paradises for photography enthusiasts. From bizarre stalactites to mysterious underground rivers, every sight promises unforgettable memories. Come to Guizhou and embark on a refreshing summer adventure!
